Psalmowo 38
1 David ƒe ha. Kukuɖeɖe. O! Yehowa, mègaka mo nam le wò dziku me, alo ahe to nam le wò dɔmedzoe helĩhelĩ me o,
`The salm of Dauid, to bythenke on the sabat. Lord, repreue thou not me in thi strong veniaunce; nether chastice thou me in thin ire.
2 elabena wò aŋutrɔwo ƒo ɖem, eye wò asi sẽ ɖe dzinye.
For thin arowis ben fitchid in me; and thou hast confermed thin hond on me.
3 Wò dziku helĩhelĩ la wɔe be ŋusẽ aɖeke megale menye o; nye ƒuwo tugu le nye nu vɔ̃ ta.
Noon helthe is in my fleisch fro the face of thin ire; no pees is to my boonys fro the face of my synnes.
4 Nye dzidada kɔ gbɔ tanye abe agba kpekpe si nyemate ŋu atsɔ o la ene.
For my wickidnessis ben goon ouer myn heed; as an heuy birthun, tho ben maad heuy on me.
5 Nye abiwo ƒaƒã hele ʋeʋẽm le nye bometsitsi ƒe nu vɔ̃ ta.
Myn heelid woundis weren rotun, and ben brokun; fro the face of myn vnwisdom.
6 Wobɔbɔm ɖe anyi, eye woɖi gbɔ̃m, eye ŋkeke blibo la, mele yiyim le nuxaxa me.
I am maad a wretche, and Y am bowid doun til in to the ende; al dai Y entride sorewful.
7 Vevesese manyagblɔ aɖe xɔ nye ame blibo la me, eye ŋusẽ aɖeke megale nye ameti blibo la ŋu o.
For my leendis ben fillid with scornyngis; and helthe is not in my fleisch.
8 Megbɔdzɔ, hegba gudugudu, eye mele ŋeŋem le nye dzi ƒe vevesese ta.
I am turmentid, and maad low ful greetli; Y roride for the weilyng of myn herte.
9 O! Aƒetɔ, nye dzimedidiwo katã le ŋkuwò me, eye nye hũɖeɖewo meɣla ɖe wò o.
Lord, al my desire is bifor thee; and my weilyng is not hid fro thee.
10 Nye dzi le tsotsom kpokpokpo, ŋusẽ vɔ le ŋunye, eye nyemegate ŋu le nu kpɔm o.
Myn herte is disturblid in me, my vertu forsook me; and the liyt of myn iyen `forsook me, and it is not with me.
11 Le nye abiawo ta, xɔ̃nyewo kple nye zɔhɛwo ƒo asa nam, eye nye aƒelikawo hã le adzɔge nam.
My frendis and my neiyboris neiyiden; and stoden ayens me. And thei that weren bisidis me stoden afer;
12 Ame siwo le nye agbe yome tim la tre mɔ nam, ame siwo di be yewoawɔ nuvevim la le nu ƒom tso nye gbegblẽ ŋuti; ŋkeke blibo la wole ɖoɖo wɔm ɖe alakpadada ŋu.
and thei diden violence, that souyten my lijf. And thei that souyten yuels to me, spaken vanytees; and thouyten gilis al dai.
13 Mele abe tokunɔ si mate ŋu ase nu o la ene, eye mele abe aɖetututɔ si mate ŋu aƒo nu o la ene.
But Y as a deef man herde not; and as a doumb man not openynge his mouth.
14 Mele abe ame si mesea nu o la ene kple ame si mate ŋu atsɔ eƒe nu aɖo nya aɖeke ŋu o la ene.
And Y am maad as a man not herynge; and not hauynge repreuyngis in his mouth.
15 O! Yehowa, mele asiwò nu kpɔm, O! Aƒetɔ, nye Mawu, atɔ nam godoo.
For, Lord, Y hopide in thee; my Lord God, thou schalt here me.
16 Elabena megblɔ be, “Mègana be woakpɔ dziɖuɖu ƒe dzidzɔ ɖe ŋutinye, alo woado wo ɖokui ɖe dzi ɖe ŋutinye ne nye afɔ ɖiɖi o.”
For Y seide, Lest ony tyme myn enemyes haue ioye on me; and the while my feet ben mouyd, thei spaken grete thingis on me.
17 Esusɔ vie ko madze anyi, eye nye vevesese la le edzi ɖaa.
For Y am redi to betyngis; and my sorewe is euere in my siyt.
18 Meʋu nye dzidada me, eye nye nu vɔ̃ ɖe fu nam.
For Y schal telle my wickidnesse; and Y schal thenke for my synne.
19 Ame geɖewoe nye nye futɔ gãwo, eye ame siwo lé fum susumanɔmetɔe la sɔ gbɔ ŋutɔ.
But myn enemyes lyuen, and ben confermed on me; and thei ben multiplyed, that haten me wickidli.
20 Ame siwo tsɔ vɔ̃ ɖo nyui siwo mewɔ teƒe la ƒo ɖi nye ŋkɔ, esi meti nu si nyo la yome.
Thei that yelden yuels for goodis, backbitiden me; for Y suede goodnesse.
21 O! Yehowa, mègagblẽm ɖi o, O! Nye Mawu, mèganɔ adzɔge nam o.
My Lord God, forsake thou not me; go thou not awei fro me.
22 Va kaba, nàɖem, O! Aƒetɔ, nye Ɖela.
Lord God of myn helthe; biholde thou in to myn help.
